Things to Try

Summers, for me anyway, are about trying new things. Here is a list of things I would like to start doing. This list may be updated over time.

• Do not complain all day until 9:00PM, then write down any complaints you remember from the day.
• Drink warm lemon water first thing in the morning.
• Start each day by writing five things that you are grateful for.
• End each day by journaling.
• Turn off all electronic devices at least an hour before bed.
• Wash your face twice a day.
• Go one week without electronic screens (e.g., iPhone, laptop, TV, etc.)
• Meditate every morning.
• Write down a daily intention for yourself every morning.
• Repeat affirmations to yourself every morning.
• Wake up every morning and ask "How can I better myself today?"
• Read every day.
• When possible, eat local and organic.
• Get at least 30 minutes of physical activity every day.
• Start and end your days with yoga.
• Drink at least eight cups of water every day.
• Buy in bulk whenever possible.
• Limit purchasing things that have disposable wrapping/containers.
• Buy food in season whenever possible. Utilize farmers markets.
• Never use plastic bags.
